Jane Siberry - Above The Treeline Lyrics
I went out with Wolf tonight, I had so many worries on my mind I was feeling lost, feeling confused, feeling afraid--I wanted to hide But when I got home after work Wolf would not let me stay inside So I put on my heavy coat and kerchief and closed the door behind us I followed Wolf across the road, he took a trail that leads up through the forest I saw Wolf's shadow moving through the trees ahead of me --don't go too fast Wolf And finally we got to the other side --it was so still, it was so bright and clear For there stretched before us like a ballroom glove in the moonlight lay the snowfields It was a starry night And the snow had stopped falling And I feel that I heard someone singing Fly us to the moon High above our upturned faces Booming in the bright Send some good things down on this earth tonight Wolf ran out into the glittering fields --I stood and watched him from the treeline The starry heavens danced down on the snow then up again like gateways gathering Then somehow I was out there with Wolf --I stared at him--he looked so different Oh Wolf I can't stop laughing but I feel somehow that everything is all right I don't know how many miles we traced across the snow--maybe a thousand I followed Wolf in peace and I don't even know if we were breathing And part of me never went home after that night--I think it stayed there But it is in good care beneath the stars above the fields of snow that stretch there
